Princess Beatrice was spotted for the first time since her pregnancy announcement leaving a celeb-stuffed London party.
The 36-year-old was pictured leaving a party at the Chiltern Firehouse in central London, a popular spot for celebrities.
Beatrice was dressed in a velvet blazer with a cinched waist and long sleeves. She paired the blazer with wide-leg trousers and glam make-up.
She was attending the event in central London to mark the swanky restaurant’s 10th anniversary.

Also in attendance was Noel Gallagher, who was partying just days after Oasis announced their first US dates in 16 years, Francis Ford Coppola whose new film Megalopolis has been hit with mixed reviews, and Idris Elba who joined Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer last month for the launch of a new anti-knife crime coalition.
Popstars Lily Allen and Ellie Goulding were also seen at the event as was American ambassador to the UK Jane Hartley and Emma Weymouth, Viscountess of Bath.
Earlier this week, Buckingham Palace announced the news that Beatrice was expecting her second child with Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi next spring.
The couple, who wed in 2020, already share a daughter named Sienna, who celebrated her third birthday last month. Edo also has a son named Wolfie, eight, from a previous relationship.
